Kissing and the Law.

1t is interesting to learn that the right
of young people of the opposite sexes,to
kfss%aeh- other was brought up in q
Chicago court, the other day, and that
the bench with promptness aud public
spirit fully maintained personal liberty
in the matter.
A young man and lady INDUCED in
that old fashion but ever-fresh amuse-
ment, the other evening. near window.
The act was perceived by spectator of
the female sex, who was evidently so
wrought up by the transaction that she
instituted prosecution of the young
man for "disorderly conduct" Whether
that charge was supported by the plea
that the act was calculated to produce a
riot among the other women who were
who had not the privilege of doing the
kissing, does not appear in the reports !;
but as the young woman was pretty
and the young man gallant, it is possible
that both classes were involved in the
case. AT all events the court sustained
the right of OSCILLATION. and held that
while kissing at window may involve
question of good taste. it was not dis
orderly conduct when done by mutual
consent and agreement.
Possibly the wise Judges ruling was
governed by knowledge that if the
practice was declared illegal it would
only increase its popularity by adding
to it the charms of stolen pleasures.
But it is sufficient that the right to kiss
has been sustained, and for every Chi
cagoan who can find person of the op>
posite sex, not hampered by pricr con-
tracts. ard mutually agreeable thereto,
the kissing may go ou.-Pitts. Dispatch {.

Ohio at the Front.

We most sincerely congratulate the
Republicans of the State of Ohio. They
have done nobly in deciding unanimous
| ly to present the name of Senator John
Sherman to the National Convention as
their choice for our next President. We
congratulate the Republicans of the
whole country in view of this action.
because of the great influence it is sure
TO have in all quarters.
There is no man in the United States
who is better qualified to fill the Office
than Senator Sherman. He probably
knows more about the wants of the ma
tioD, at this critical time, than any other
man whose name will be proposed as the
presidential candidate of the party. His
knowledge of matters relating to finance,
the tariff, internal revenue, and all other
interests connected with our business
Affairs is, undoubtedly. far superior to
that of other man. His long training in
the House of Representatives and in the
Senate. his valuable help and experience
as Secretary of the Treasury and in
giving shape to our financial interests,
bis practical knowledge of all parlia+
mentsry affairs, obtained while acting
as our Vice Presidential these things
we affirm, place Senator Sherman in the
front rank among the ablest men of the
nation and of the age. His integrity
cannot be and never has been question
ed. He is the kind of man now wanted
to be at the head of this Government.
He is safe man, and the people know
this to be so, and would trust him in
any emergency. He is a practical busi-
ness man with no nonsense about him,
a clear-headed politician of sort that
could net easily be fooled. He has
steadily grown in public estimation and
confidence, and in our opinion has no SD
perior in the country for the high Office
named. If John Sherman can be nomi-
mated blythe Republican party coupled
with such a name as that of Senator
Joseph r. Hawley for Vice President,
the entire party could and would rally
to its support. Business men would all
unite in the election of such a ticket.
There woald be no Mugwumps in the
camp or in the campaign. We stand
ready to work with will for the elec-
tion of such men as We have named
There would be again 'peace and union"
in the party such as has not existed for
years, and all good men would be en-
thuiastic, as of old, In its support.-N.

Swedish women at Homs.

Swedish women are, in their own country,
models of neatness The private house at
which Mr.. Lancaster and myself had pro-

lady named Ritzen, and the scrupulous
cleanliness OF the apartments we. occupied
was indeed marvellous. There were no car
pets on the floor, but the latter were always
kept beautifully clean, being daily and 1

hostess and her natty little maid servant,

their religious convictions crimes, that in our
country would inevitably send the offender
to the penitentiary, were there almost wholly
disregarded, and, in fact, looked upon as being
nothing uncommon. The clergymen in
Sweden appear to exercise wonderful control
over their charges. In fact, no Italian priest
could be more rigid in his surveillance of the
morals Of his people, and yet among the
peasantry l was assured that not one in ten
of the men ever dream Of marrying woman
until they have both lived together for pc
riod varying from one month TO year; still
the ministers of the gospel strive hard to in

pose Of examining the peasants in reading
and the catechism Of their religion.-Boston

Chronicle last week.
We again direct attention to specific
charges of maladministration and NAL
feasance by Democratic county officers,
and challenge any one to meet and an
swer them. Here they are, and they are
40 trifling S1.5O matters. but are things
that have cost the honest people of this
county many thousands of dollars:
l. That, although the county has been one
of the most prosperous in the state-although
its tax duplicate within specified time has in
creased nearly $4,000, 0,000-although its popu-
lation has increased 5,0O0-although upward
of twenty Incorporated companies Gncluding
two national banks and a large iron works.
have been organized within the time named
the personal tao list has actually decreased =
and Democratic County Auditors are mainly
responsible for it.
II. That Democratic Auditors have been so
careless of their obligations and duties that
county expenses have been greatly increased.
III. That Democratic Auditors have time
and again drawn warrants upon the treasury
without authority of law.
". That the late Democratic Auditor over
drew his salary.
V. That the st. Clairsville Gazette has
profted from the recklessness and extrava-
gance that have prevailed in the Auditor
office.
VI. That the bank property of the county
has been undervalued for taxation, and that
hank officers knew the Auditor favored them,
at the expense of other people.
VII. That ex-Auditor Barrett overdreW for
assessing railroads, in I684-85-86, $l72 IA.
VIII. That he Travelled upon free passes,
given him by the railroads to secure his good
will and at the same time charged the county
for his car fare.
TX. That Democratic Clerk of the courts
failed to cover unclaimed costs into the treas
ury in 1885, as required by law.
! Y. That a Democratic Auditor kept nc
copies of the tax lists given the Treasurer in
1886, and that the entire December collection
was made without any check whatever upon
the Treasurer.
XI. That Democratic Commissioners lei
contracts for skeleton of a court house, in
tending to change them.
